a/n: k, so that was hilarious! The Littlest Weasley (thanks for reviewing!) mentioned that I made the snitches on Ginny's team and Draco's team Slytherin colors, and Harry and Ron's Gryffindor colors. I didn't even realize it at the time! V funny, I thought!

Depth of Soul, valentines-hater, mz.sammiz, blissfulxsin, the hollister & hoppers: thanks for your reviews!! It is wonderful to hear that you like the story. Makes me feel happy! sobs dramatically THANK YOU!!!!!! Here is the next update! : ) (if you aren't mentioned, don't feel bad! I based this upon the people who had reviewed by 9:00 Monday night. For chapter 8.)

Back in her dorm after dinner, Ginny attempted to fall asleep. Her clock's purple letters read eleven fourteen, and she knew she should try to fall asleep soon. Even with the lights out she had trouble lying still for too long. She couldn't shake the feeling that there was something big about their meeting tonight. Maybe it was just the pudding at dinner, it had tasted rather funny. Harry and Ron had moved to their old beds in Gryffindor tower, no boys had chosen them this year. Harry had been bombarded with questions when he had entered the tower, but when the excitement finally subsided, he and Ron had bade Ginny goodnight and gotten ready for bed.

With this final thought, Ginny drifted into unconsciousness. She was awoken a little later by her silent alarm, an alarm that only she could hear. The numbers on her watch read one twenty four. She grabbed her jacket from the table by her canopy and silently crept out through the common room and down the stone halls of her school. Narrowly avoiding Filch and McGonagall on their final 'student sweep' she had worked herself into a foul mood by the time she got to the moon bathed willow. The squid was taking a moonlit bath, splashing water over the banks of the lake. All her murderous thoughts vanished when she saw Draco waiting quietly under the drooping leaves of the willow tree.

"Took you long enough!" he joked. Ginny smiled slyly, wrapping him into a large hug. He smelled of light pepper and cologne. Taking a deep breath, she stepped back quietly, staring into his bright silvery eyes. She loved him.

"I love you Ginny..." he started slowly. She waited for his next sentence. "You make me so...happy, and emotion I wasn't even sure I knew how to express." Smiling tenderly at him, her expression turned from loving and happy to shock within seconds. Ginny blinked, and the next thing she saw was the man that she loved down on one knee in front of her. "I know this is really sudden, but I love you. With all of my heart, and I don't want to lose you. Ginny's eyes welled up with tears, and her whole body shook with raw emotion.

"Ginevra, marry me?" the simplicity of such a large offer took Ginny by complete surprise. The flood of tears she had held at bay flooded over her face like a waterfall, staining her jacket.

"Yes!" Ginny replied enthusiastically. Draco rose from the ground quickly, sliding the ring on her finger happily, holding onto her slender hands with all his might. Before he knew what had happened, his fiancé launched herself at him, sending them both tumbling into the sandy beach of the lake. They stopped rolling at the edge of water and sand, Ginny pinned below Draco. They shared a simple, sweet, loving kiss, and Draco pulled her upright, tugging her in the direction of the castle. They dashed down the corridors at top speed, disrupting Miss. Norris. A large mew echoed throughout the stone dungeon passages as Draco pulled Ginny through the doorway to the Potions classroom and through the next to his room, shutting the door swiftly behind them.

Ginny's jacket was thrown onto the ground as they kissed, Draco shoving her onto his unmade bed. She pulled his shirt off over his head slowly, taunting him and herself. They smiled at each other for an instant before Draco performed an unbreakable locking charm on the door. He forced their lips together in a primal dance, bodies sweating with passion, lust, and love.

a/n: k, insert whatever here...I know what some of you were thinking... PG-13, remember?? Not R. YAY! Alrighty!

The next morning came early, a mossy stone smell permeating the girl's dormitory. Ginny took a moment to realize that she was in the dungeons. The night's events came back to her in a rush and she looked down at her left hand to be sure. Smiling happily, she looked at the man next to her. She snuggled closer and lay contentedly next to her fiancé, snuggling into his chest and waiting for him to awaken.

Half of an hour later, Draco stirred Ginny out of her revere, shaking her out of her half awakened state and pointing urgently at the clock. Swiftly leaning down, he kissed her before they rose from the bed together and moved into his shower. Quickly washing their hair and bodies, they wrapped towels around one another and Ginny moved back into the bedroom, pulling on last night's pajamas and getting ready to leave when she heard a sudden knock on her door.

"Ginny! What are you doing?" Harry's voice yelled through the door. He sounded extremely unhappy.

"Ginevra Molly Weasley! Open this door immediately!" Ginny froze; her full name was never a good sign coming from Ron. She decided to play innocent.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"What's wrong?" he countered hotly. "Why don't you tell me what's wrong! Like why you were in Draco Malfoy's shower, with him inside of it as well!" Ginny sank to the bed, defeated, as both Ron and Harry banged on the door. She had forgotten about the Marauder's Map, and it seemed it was a fatal mistake. She figured that Draco had a silencing charm on his bathroom because he hadn't appeared yet. She unlocked the door just as the bathroom door opened as well.

Harry and Ron charged through the doorway as Draco emerged unsuspectingly with only a towel wrapped loosely around his hips, hair dripping with water.

"You bastard!" yelled Ron hotly. "You bastard!" It seemed he was incapable of saying anything else. Draco looked as if it was the last thing he had expected, Scarhead and Weasel in his room with him half naked and his fiancé furious and bright red. He charmed his clothing to appear on his body and did a quick drying spell on his hair. Harry watched the whole scene with a lost look upon his face, apparently in shock.

Ron stepped forward, grabbed Ginny's wrist and pulled her from the room, her unhappy screeches and efforts at spells useless against her brother's strength.

"Stop, Ron!"

"No! I can't believe you! You can't just throw your life away!" he yelled.

"I am not throwing my life away, Ron." She said calmly.

"That is a bloody lie, Ginny! There are all sorts of risks I bet you didn't even think of! What if you get pregnant? I seriously doubt Malfoy will take responsibility!"

"I took a potion, if you must know." Ginny muttered awkwardly.

"So you did have sex with him!" The accusing voice of Harry entered the conversation for the first time. Ginny rolled her eyes in response, haughtily sighing.

"It is my life! I can make my own decisions." Ginny calmly smoothed a piece of hair behind her ear as the pulled her along the hall, determined to keep a cool attitude even if they chose to fly off the handle.

"You are not to see him again!" yelled Ron and Harry at once.

"What is the big problem?" she asked. "He isn't that bad."

"In bed or in personality!?" Harry yelled questioningly.

"Both!" she half screamed, knowing that it stung for both of them to hear it. "He is a wonderful person, not the cold evil exterior that he shows to the world!"

"So he insulted us for seven years for his own demented entertainment?" Ron screamed. Ginny pulled them into a classroom and slammed the door, not wanting the whole school to find out what they were yelling about.

"Isn't it against the rules to date and have sex with a teacher?" Ginny shrugged off Harry's question and chose to answer Ron's instead.

"Pretty much." She smiled happily, thinking of her fiancé. Fiancé, she thought suddenly. Why should she keep it a secret? Harry and Ron were almost as mad as possible.

"There isn't anything you can do." She held out her left hand, and the boy's eyes bugged out immediately. "I love him and he loves me. We're getting married after graduation."
